Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 1 Yellow onion, diced
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 15 oz Crushed tomatoes
- 8 oz Tomato sauce
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tsp Sugar
- 8 oz Rotini pasta
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for another 30 seconds, until fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook and crumble the beef until it is browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, Italian seasoning, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the rotini pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta and set it aside.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the beef and tomato mixture. Stir until the pasta is evenly coated.
Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with a light coat of olive oil or non-stick spray. Pour the pasta and beef mixture into the dish and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top, followed by the mozzarella cheese.
Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with the chopped parsley before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your Yummy Hamburger Casserole!
